Fairfield, New Jersey, United States

It's time to sell my 2002 Pontiac Sunfire GT. I purchased this car in 2010 when it had 137,000 miles. It now has 218,000+ miles and is still running strong. I planned to keep driving this car for as long as it was running, but I need a newer car for my job (I bought another Pontiac).

I have been the owner and only driver for the past 80,000+ miles. I have been extremely happy with this car.

Recent repairs:
All new front brakes (pads, rotors and calipers) - new brake fluid too - 6/30/14 (just last month)
Exhaust - Engine to Catalytic Converter (including new cat) - 1/25/13
Oxygen Sensors - 11/9/12
Alternator, belt, battery - 5/22/12
Ignition Control Module, coil, Spark Plugs 4/5/12
Oil just changed

I have receipts for everything.
I can provide receipts for oil changes...although, when you hear it run you will know it is a very well maintained car.

Some good things worth mentioning:
I drive 80% highway/ 20% city - I always get 30mpg - 400mi per tank of gas (about $45)
Clutch is very strong
ABS Brakes work great in the snow and rain
Inspection good thru December 2014
AC is very cold
Radio, CD and speakers are all in good working condition
Drives straight at all speeds
It has the 2.2L, DOHC EcoTec Engine with a 5 speed manual transmission.

A few issues worth mentioning:
The interior fan has 3 speeds (low medium and high). Medium and high work perfectly - low does not work.
Front tires are 40% rear tires are 10%.
Check engine light is on sometimes and off sometimes. The code is a vacuum leak, but this has been smoke tested and there is no leak. It will pass private inspection.
Clearcoat started to peel off the roof. This was sanded and painted black.
Exhaust has a little rattle.

The car is parked at my work on Route 46 in Fairfield NJ - you are welcome to come take a look anytime (weekends too).

This is an honest sale of a great car; you can bid with confidence on this Sunfire. Winning bidder will be given the opportunity to take it on a test drive before making final payment. With the exception of the items listed here, I believe this is the best 2002 Pontiac Sunfire you will find anywhere. I am so sure you will be pleased with this car, if after your test drive, you don't agree this has been listed accurately, I'll be happy to re-list it for another buyer. You won't be disappointed!

This is a no-reserve auction.

Dealers are welcome, but this car will only be sold thru this Ebay auction - winner gets it!

Thanks for looking!

GM knew about fatal Chevy ignition problem decade before recall

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Well, this is not good for General Motors. Following a report last week that GM was recalling 778,000 Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 compacts over concerns that the ignition could switch out of the "run" position without warning, USA Today reports that the Detroit-based behemoth knew about the issue, which affected 2005 to 2007 Cobalts (the Cobalt shown above and in the gallery is from 2010) and 2007 Pontiac G5s, all the way back in 2004.
The information comes from a deposition in a civil lawsuit against GM, obtained by USA Today, which claims that a GM engineer experienced the issue while the then-new model was undergoing testing. The issue was "solved" when a technical service bulletin was issued in 2005, informing dealers to install a snap-on key cover on the cars of customers who complained about the issue. According to the Cobalt's program engineering manager, Gary Altman, the cover was an "improvement, it was not a fix to the issue."
The case where the depositions were made was from 2010, and involved Brooke Melton, a 29-year-old pediatric nurse in Georgia who was killed on her birthday. At the time, police claimed she was going too fast on a wet, rural road, although it later came out through the black box that her car's ignition had come out of the "run" position at least three seconds before the accident (the max amount of time a black box records before a wreck), disabling her airbags, power steering and anti-lock brakes. According to USA Today, police said Melton was "traveling too fast for the roadway conditions," although it's impossible to know if she'd have been in the wreck, which injured the occupants of another vehicle, had her 2005 Chevy not shut off. GM settled the Melton family's case, although the details remain confidential.

Pontiac Firebird in latest Generation Gap scrap

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Generation Gap is mining the Lingenfelter collection again this week to compare two very different interpretations of the Pontiac Firebird. An original 1968 example goes toe-to-toe with a 2010 Lingenfelter Trans Am to see whether the old man or the modern re-imagining takes the crown.
Being from the Lingenfelter collection, both cars are absolutely immaculate. The '68 packs a Pontiac 350-cubic-inch (5.7-liter) V8 with a claimed 320 horsepower and some classic, muscular style with a hood-mounted tach. Plus, it's painted in an understated shade of green that you don't usually see.
In the other corner is Lingenfelter's pumped-up take on the classic shape based on the modern Camaro, and this is just one of six concept versions ever made. It wears an eye-catching, vintage-inspired livery of blue with a white stripe package. Under its shaker hood is a 455-cubic-inch (7.5-liter) V8 with a reported 655 hp and 610 pound-feet of torque.
